Aritzia Return Policy: 14 Days for Your Money Back, 30 Days for Credit

Aritzia’s return policy runs on two short clocks, and the difference between them is money. Return a regular-priced item within 14 days — of the shipping date for online orders, of the purchase date for boutique buys — and you get a refund to your original method of payment. Take up to 30 days and the same item comes back only as an exchange or merchandise credit.

After 30 days, Aritzia accepts neither. Sale items are tighter still: discounted less than 50%, they can be exchanged or credited within 14 days only; discounted 50% or more, they are final sale. Every return needs items not washed, worn or damaged, all original tags attached and a valid receipt — and US mail returns are free when you check out signed into your Aritzia account.

REFUND WINDOW – 14 days from shipping date (online) or purchase date (boutique) — original method of payment

CREDIT WINDOW – Up to 30 days — exchange or merchandise credit

MAIL RETURNS – Free in the US when signed into your account; guest checkout pays an $8.00 postage fee

FINAL SALE – Sale items at 50% off or more, intimates and shapewear, hosiery, The Super Puff™ Personalized

How to Return an Item to Aritzia

  1. Start the right clock. Online orders count from the shipping date; boutique purchases count from the purchase date. Inside 14 days a regular-priced item refunds; inside 30 days it exchanges or credits; after that, neither.
  2. Check the condition and the receipt. Items must not be washed, worn or damaged, with all original tags attached, and you must present a valid receipt. Swimwear needs its liner attached; shoes must be in the original box.
  3. Online purchases can go back online or in a boutique. Purchases from Aritzia.com, the Aritzia App or Google UCP Agentic Checkout can be returned or exchanged online and in a boutique. Boutique purchases go back to any boutique in the same country where you bought the item.
  4. To mail it back, start in Order History. Sign in, open the order and select Return Items, review the details and click Process Return. Guests and Google UCP Agentic Checkout shoppers use the Order Tracking form instead. A Return Confirmation email follows.
  5. Ship it the free or the $8 way. Signed-in account returns are free within the US. If you checked out as a guest, a return postage fee of $8.00 (plus applicable taxes) is deducted from your refund. Bring the QR code from your confirmation to any FedEx location, or print the return label at home and drop the package at FedEx.
  6. Keep one order to one box and one label. Include all items from a single order in one box with the return label that matches that order, even if items arrived in separate shipments. Returning items from multiple orders? Contact Aritzia Concierge to set up the return.
  7. For an online exchange, have a default credit card saved. Exchanges receive free shipping, but the mechanics are a charge-and-refund: your default credit card is charged for the replacement item upon shipping, and once the original item is received and processed, you receive a refund to your original method of payment. With no default credit card, you cannot complete an exchange online.

How Long Do You Have to Return Items to Aritzia?

Thirty days at the outside — and only 14 of them are worth a refund. The structure is identical online and in boutiques, with only the start date changing: online, both clocks run from the shipping date; in a boutique, from the purchase date. Within 14 days, regular-priced items refund to your original method of payment. Within 30 days, they can be exchanged or returned for merchandise credit. After 30 days, returns are no longer accepted in either channel.

Sale items compress the structure. A discount of less than 50% gives you 14 days — and only for an exchange or merchandise credit, never a refund. A discount of 50% or greater makes the item final sale from the moment you buy it.

Can You Return to Aritzia Without a Receipt?

The published conditions require you to present a valid receipt for all returns and exchanges — it sits on the same list as unwashed condition and attached tags. The policy page publishes no no-receipt fallback, store-credit-without-receipt rule or lookup promise. For online orders, your account’s Order History and the Order Tracking form (order number plus the email used for the order) are how Aritzia identifies the purchase for a mail return, so keep the order and shipping emails: at Aritzia, proof of purchase is part of the return, not a formality.

What Can’t Be Returned to Aritzia?

Aritzia publishes its final sale list on the policy page:

  • Sale items marked at 50% off or greater — final sale, no return or exchange
  • Intimates and shapewear — final sale
  • Hosiery — final sale
  • The Super Puff™ Personalized — final sale
  • Anything after 30 days — returns and exchanges are no longer accepted
  • Items that fail the condition rules — washed, worn or damaged items, or items missing their original tags; swimwear without its liner; shoes without the original box
  • Gift cards, for cash — gift cards may not be redeemed for cash or refunded unless required by law

How Are Refunds Issued and How Long Do They Take?

Inside the 14-day window, the refund goes to your original method of payment. Once Aritzia receives your mailed package, it will process your return within 7 to 10 business days and email you when the return is complete; refunds to the original payment method typically appear within 7–10 business days, though some financial institutions may take longer. Inside the 30-day window but outside the refund window, the value comes back as merchandise credit — an eGift Card sent to the email address associated with your order.

Three payment-method rules shape what “refund” means:

  • Gift card purchases are refunded as merchandise credit back onto a gift card — never to a card or cash.
  • PayPal orders are refunded to your PayPal account only when you mail the return back. Return a PayPal purchase in a boutique and you will be offered an exchange or merchandise credit instead.
  • Klarna orders follow the same channel split: mailed back, the refund can go to your Klarna account; returned in a boutique, Aritzia cannot refund your Klarna account and will refund a credit or debit card, exchange, or issue merchandise credit — and subsequent installments to Klarna may still be required.

And the fee: mail returns are free for signed-in account holders in the US, but a guest checkout return has an $8.00 postage fee (plus applicable taxes) deducted from the refund.

How Do Aritzia Exchanges Work?

Exchanges live in the same windows: regular-priced items can be exchanged within 30 days; sale items under 50% off, within 14 days. In a boutique, an exchange is a counter transaction. Online, it runs as a paired charge and refund — you select the item and the new size, color or length in your Order History (if the original item is out of stock, it is not eligible for an exchange), your default credit card is charged for the replacement when it ships, and your refund to the original payment method follows once the original item is received and processed. Exchanges receive free shipping, and you send the original back by the same mail route or take it to a boutique with your exchange confirmation email.

Does Aritzia Extend Returns for the Holidays?

No extended holiday return window is published on Aritzia’s US Return & Exchange Policy page as of 31 October 2026 — the page states the year-round 14/30-day structure and nothing seasonal on top of it. That makes December arithmetic unforgiving on gifts: both clocks for an online order run from the shipping date, not from the day the gift is opened, so a gift shipped in mid-December can pass its 14-day refund window before it is unwrapped and reach day 30 in mid-January. If you are gifting from Aritzia, the merchandise-credit window is the realistic route for the recipient — and an exchange inside 30 days keeps the value at full price rather than final-sale risk.

Frequently Asked Questions

Regular-priced items: refund to your original method of payment within 14 days (of the shipping date online, of purchase in a boutique), or an exchange or merchandise credit within 30 days. Sale items under 50% off: exchange or credit within 14 days only. Sale items at 50% off or more, intimates and shapewear, hosiery and The Super Puff™ Personalized are final sale. Items must be unwashed, unworn and undamaged with tags attached and a valid receipt.

Thirty days at most — and what you get changes at day 14. The refund window is 14 days; days 15–30 are exchange-or-credit territory; after 30 days Aritzia no longer accepts returns. Online orders count from the shipping date, boutique purchases from the purchase date.

Mail returns within the US are free when you are signed into your Aritzia account. If you checked out as a guest, an $8.00 return postage fee plus applicable taxes is deducted from your refund. Exchanges receive free shipping. Boutique returns carry no fee.

Only sometimes. A sale item discounted less than 50% can be exchanged or returned for merchandise credit within 14 days — never refunded to your original payment. A sale item discounted 50% or more is final sale and cannot be returned or exchanged at all.

Once Aritzia receives your package, your return is processed within 7 to 10 business days, and you are emailed when it is complete. Refunds to the original payment method typically appear within 7–10 business days, though some financial institutions may take longer. Merchandise credit arrives as an eGift Card emailed to the address associated with your order.

The published conditions require a valid receipt for all returns and exchanges, alongside unworn condition and attached tags, and the page publishes no no-receipt alternative. For online orders, your Order History — or the Order Tracking form for guests — is how the purchase is identified.

Your money does not go back to PayPal or Klarna. PayPal purchases returned in a boutique are exchanged or issued as merchandise credit, and boutique returns cannot refund a Klarna account — Aritzia will refund a credit or debit card, offer an exchange or issue merchandise credit. To get a refund back to PayPal or Klarna, mail the return instead.

Start from Order History, choose the item and the new size, color or length, and submit. Your default credit card is charged for the replacement item upon shipping; once the original item is received and processed, you are refunded to your original method of payment. Exchanges ship free — but without a default credit card on file, you cannot complete an exchange online.

Related Guides

Aritzia’s return policy is built to make you decide quickly: 14 days for your money back, 30 days for credit or an exchange, and a hard stop after that — with sale items squeezed into a 14-day, credit-only lane and the deepest discounts final sale from the start. The habits that protect you: shop signed into your account so mail returns stay free, keep the receipt and tags as the policy demands, and watch the shipping date on online orders, because that — not the delivery or the gift-giving — is where both clocks start.
